Share The Road.

I definitely don't have enough balls to ride my bike on the street. I mostly ride my bike on campus and near home (on sidewalks), so there isn't a lot of cars I have to deal with when I'm biking. Unless the sidewalk condition is absolute shit (broken glass, gravel, loose stones, sleeping bums, etc.), I try not to go on the road because I know there's rude people driving that day.

When I'm driving though, it does irritate me when there's a bicyclist, but I've gotten over it by now; if it's a one-lane road, I wait a bit, or just switch lanes otherwise.

I think one of the biggest problems is the visibility and space issue; when I'm driving, it's hard to notice a small biker compared to a large car. Also, around here, the bikers have a tendency to get REALLY close to the car (same with motorcyclists, but I won't get to that). From the biker's point-of-view, there's plenty of space, but to the driver, the biker's gonna scratch off the paint, you know?

Jam it back in, in the dark.
